La Sala de Laura

The Colombian Chefs Revitalizing the Country's Food Scene | Condé Nast Traveler

"Perched above the renowned restaurant Leo in Chapinero, this bistro serves as a showcase for sommelier Laura Hernández Espinosa’s Territorio project, a range of seven distillates that use native Colombian ingredients such as passion flowers and coca leaves. The space functions as both a casual dining room and a platform to challenge the state’s monopoly on distilled drinks, which has long suffocated artisanal production, and it is explicitly inspired by women across Colombia who are protecting their traditions and families." - Stephanie Rafanelli
